Overview

Nestled on the banks of the Mbagathi River and at the southern border of Nairobi National Park, Ololo Safari Lodge is the rare place where the roar of lions and the hum of the city share the same horizon. You arrive thinking city-scape, but you find savannah skies and quiet fields. Here, wildlife roam unconcerned, and your heartbeat slows to match theirs. It’s a transition from fast-paced to free-spirited — from skyscraper shadows to acacia silhouettes.


🏨 Hotel Overview – Ololo Safari Lodge

Ololo Safari Lodge is a boutique, family-owned sanctuary set on a working 20-acre organic farm, where every dish is “paddock to plate”. With just 13 rooms (or up to 16 rooms depending source) on site, you’re assured intimacy, character, and space to breathe. Rooms range from the original Stable Rooms to tented cottages under makuti thatch, a three-bedroom cottage for up to six guests, and a family wing for five.
You sip sundowners overlooking the park, dine on fresh farm produce, and rest in rooms whispering with history and safari style. At Ololo, the wild is at your doorstep and the city just beyond your dreams

Itinerary

Day 1 – Arrival at Ololo Safari Lodge: Farm, Forest, Freedom

Arrive through the gate, crossing the river’s gentle rush, and you step into Ololo Safari Lodge — where the farm meets the bush. A welcome drink in your hand, you settle into your chosen room: whether the cozy Stable Room, the airy Tented Cottage, or the three-bedroom cottage for families. Afternoon invites a dip in the pool that overlooks the park, or simply a stroll through the gardens where giraffe silhouettes graze in the distance. As dusk falls, you wander to the terrace, cocktail in hand, as the sky spills mauve and gold. Dinner follows, in the dining room or under stars, every bite rooted in the farm’s soil.
“Tonight, you sleep where the farm’s heartbeat meets the wild’s hush.”

Day 2 – Sunrise, Safari & Farewell Echoes

At dawn, Ololo Safari Lodge awakens with soft light. Step outside for an early walk amidst the trees, the Ngong Hills framing the distance. Return for a farm-fresh breakfast, eggs collected that morning, coffee steaming in your cup. Then choose your moment: pool time or a short game drive into the park just minutes away. By midday you check out — lighter, renewed, carrying the quiet of the bush within you.
“You came for one night, but you leave with a safari’s soul.”
